I'm now a 3X which is a size I haven't seen in about 6 years! I have plenty of 3X clothes but once I drop that size I'm going to need to supplement my wardrobe. Would you mind telling me what Vallue Village you've had the greatest success with and are there others you recommend I try? In my apt. bldg. we have a recycling center for the usual, but also for unwanted furniture and anything else. There's a collection bin from the NW Center. That's a charitable organization for the Retarded and they colect clothing which they sell to Vallue Village. All my 4X clothing went in that bin and may eventually be at a Value Village near you. I know you have no need for my old 4X clothes; I was just commenting on one way large clothes end up in Value Villages.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2001 Report Share Posted August 12, 2001 Gobo, I live a stone's throw from the Burien VV. The Ballard one is very good. My fav for professional clothes is the one in Redmond. I have not been to Capitol Hill-- parking challenge, but am thinking of going tomorrow. My choices was considerably less when I was looking for 3X things. Now I have a bunch I need to pass along. I have been taking some things to work and leaving them there for the women veterans who can use them. Also have sent some to a shelter. I was really hard on my larger clothes... few choices and wore tham as they got too tight. Looking for some smaller ones or a shopping spree with me? , wishing the places were still open at midnight > Would you mind telling me what Vallue Village you've had > the greatest success with and are there others you > recommend I try? > > gobo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
